Chapter 1 – Purpose

How do Jesus Christ’s statements in John 14:15 And John 14:21 reinforce and agree with in the new testament — what Proverbs chapter 1 had already established about our purpose and the purpose of God’s instruction, wisdom, ducklings and correction?

Who loves discipline?

http://bible.com/59/pro.12.1.ESV
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but he who hates reproof is stupid.

The worldly man says, “It is better to ask forgiveness than permission” and “let’s fill our lives with pleasure and riches and taking from those whom we can, there is no punishment ahead, there is only taking and acquiring and growing in power and influence and authority over other men”.

Buy the wise man, the man with his mind set upon spiritual things, the one who sees the patterns and movements and can discern the work of good and evil in men’s hearts – he knows that wisdom comes through correction,  that change and refinement tales place in the hands of the master potter,  who fashions vessels for His use,  to be filled and overflowing with his Holy Spirit.

PSA 77:11-15 ESV
I will remember the deeds of the Lord ; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.  I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds.  Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?  You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples.  You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
